Application Notes


  • Sorting of Semi-Permeable Capsules using the Styx Platform

    Cellular phenotypes are intricately linked to the genetic program expressed under specific environmental conditions. Existing flow cytometry techniques face challenges in reliably recovering specific cells based on their nucleic acid content. Consequently, there's a need for innovative tools for nucleic acid-based cell isolation. Nucleic acid cytometry is a relatively new field based on droplet microfluidics that allows the identification and sorting of cells based on specific nucleic acid biomarkers.

  • Restriction Endonucleases from NEB

    With over 40 years of offering restriction enzymes to the research community, NEB has earned the reputation of being a leader in enzyme technologies. Working continuously to be worthy of that distinction, NEB strives to develop enzymes of the highest purity and unparalleled performance.
  • A Practical Guide to Analyzing Nucleic Acid Concentration and Purity with Microvolume Spectrophotometers

    Microvolume spectrophotometers (MVS) are commonly used for the analysis of nucleic acid (NA) samples. They require a small sample volume (0.5–2.0 μl) and are economical, convenient and widely commercially available. Typically, they can measure NA concentrations as low as 1 ng/μl and they are compatible with various assays for all types of NA and proteins. Concentration and purity readings from MVS are often accepted as fact; however, a more detailed understanding of the readings can provide meaningful insight into the quality of the sample and its suitability for downstream applications. This technical note provides detailed explanations and guidance on how to interpret and use MVS measurements, with a focus on samples purified using silica spin columns.
  • NEBNext Direct® Custom Ready Panel technology analyzed using NextGENe®

    With targeted panels becoming an excellent alternative for whole exome and genome Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) there is an increasing need for highly flexible and optimized custom panels. The NEBNext Direct technology in conjunction with NextGENe software represents a high-quality solution for generation and analysis of sequencing data for identification sequence variants present in a user-friendly manner.

  • Mechanical DNA Fragmentation with the Q800R2 Sonicator

    The Qsonica Q800R2 Sonicator offers an alternative method for mechanical DNA fragmentation for Illumina TruSeq® Library Preparation Kits.

  • Restriction Enzymes for Droplet Digital PCR (ddPCR)

    NEB has evaluated a number of restriction enzymes for simple genomic DNA fragmentation in droplet digital PCR assays. This list is not meant to be exhaustive, but provides a starting point for validated enzymes with some simple usage guidelines. Each restriction enzyme listed below was successfully used for a ddPCR digest directly in the Bio-Rad® Droplet Digital SuperMix.

  • Analysis of chromosomal aberrations and recombination by allelic bias in RNA-Seq

  • NucleoBond Endotoxin Free Plasmid DNA in CRISPR/Cas9 and lentiviral packaging/cell culture research

    Forward genetic screens are powerful tools for the unbiased discovery and functional characterization of specific genetic elements associated with a phenotype of interest. Recently, the RNA-guided endonuclease Cas9 from the microbial CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats) immune system has been adapted for genome-scale screening by combining Cas9 with pooled guide RNA libraries. Here we describe a protocol for genome-scale knockout and transcriptional activation screening using the CRISPR-Cas9 system.
